lirik lagu gemstones – new world
[verse 1]
watching the stars bleach and carve their skin
got me wondering do i fit in
hide my scars behind clothes
some say when you die, it’s the moment that your life begins
can’t run, it’s a dead-end road
let go, we ain’t’ designed to win
if we’re not in charge why we fight so hard?
i guess it’s just the pride of men
everybody on your marks; get ready, get set, go
we outta here
you could fly with god if you die or starve
run, run, run, run, run away
[verse 2]
obama’s gone
how could you not have known who’s side you on?
pick a side, it’s either ours or the ones who fly the drones
little size ticks and flies, some the size of homes
that swiftly glide through the friendly skies, they watching as we roam
the universe is infinite, surprise you not alone
been at risk, nothing will survive don’t care how much we clone
limit it, minutes tick before they pull us out our homes
like immigrants, the son of god is sitting right beside the throne
it’s limitless, times my mother couldn’t afford to buy a bone
her gentle kiss is what we looked forward to
i call her phone and reminisce
sounding like the cord is loose
hold on a sec, i hear a glitch
stones they been recording you
stop talking so much and zip your lips
predictions of the oracles, the world is in a field of shift
i’m in and out of portal moves to different worlds, is it a gift
or cursed because i’m a mortal fool that know but rather plead the 5th
’cause people think you crazy when you tell them you been seeing ships
reptilians are real although i’ve never seen them shift
i got a friend who did while 85% think it’s a myth
the other 10% know but don’t care, the other 5% just keep it to themselves in preparation for the big event
the living length of a black male living today, i give an inch
smell the stench infected from the letter wrote by willie lynch
ignorance is bliss, the poor rejected by the filthy rich
try your best to never get infected by the filthiness
[hook]
those that’ll tattle tell don’t know
those that have ties won’t tell a soul
don’t sell your soul (don’t sell your soul, don’t sell your soul)
there’s no amount of cries that h-ll won’t hold
the well’s running dry the tales been told
don’t sell your soul
welcome to the new world
[verse 3]
a lot of phone tapping
lacking of homes having pappys
to attend the track meets
federal drone tracking
system failing, no medicaid for the sickle celling
rich prevailing, chem trailing, poisonous gas inhaling
chance of a better day is in the river sailing
we get the tail end prestigious
building barricades beneath us welding
doomsday preparations, secret underground locations
we pledging to a flag of an un-united nation
building birds secretly congregating
where billionaires who shape society that maintain every dime they making
god’s elite will unlock the combination
it’s a revelation’s mark of the beast and planted underneath the scar engravings
the tv watching, you watch every station
love and hip hop’s got you blind, but oh, are we in for a rude awakening
where’s the liberation?
population being controlled by a disease that’s boutta wipe out a whole generation
[hook]
i remember ’bout 7 or 8 years ago
i was riding in a car with one of my homies
and we were conversing
and i told him like, “yo, i can’t wait until i get in this rap game
and i ‘come this millionaire and i turn one million into two million
i’m ten million, twenty million”
and he laughed at me
he said, “stone”
(those that’ll tattle tell don’t know)
“this thing ain’t about money, boy”
(those that have ties won’t tell a soul)
“you have it twisted, this thing ain’t about money”
(don’t sell your soul, don’t sell your soul, don’t sell your soul
there’s no amount of cries that h-ll won’t hold)
“this thing is about power”
(the well’s running dry the tales been told)
and i didn’t understand it then
(don’t sell your soul)
but i get it now
(welcome to the new world)
that’s exactly what this thing is about
and those that know won’t tell
those that’ll tell, don’t know
understand it
[outro]
gemstones for life
you already know what it is
blind elephant
i got on my safety pin
love, hope, faith, strength, and togetherness
i’m out
you might not listen to me today
but you’re gonna here me tomorrow
stones
